Would you take it? Should policy state that we all take it?

A new blood test that could change the way cancer is detected and diagnosed is soon to become available in the U.S.

The Galleri blood test was developed by GRAIL, a San Francisco, California-based biotechnology company.

The test is expected to be able to detect 50 different types of cancer via a blood test such as pancreatic, ovarian and esophageal.

Its rollout would be 'game changer', one expert says, and it could potentially save millions of lives through early cancer diagnoses.

Pops had prostate cancer (and survived). I'd sign up for this day 1

EDIT:
The cost of the Galleri® test may vary depending on the healthcare practice or provider who orders the test. The list price for the Galleri test is $949.

Even tho it is scary i rather know early so i have a fighting chance. Im glad of the endoscopy/colonoscopy i got years ago for my stomach issues or I wouldn't have found out that i had polyps. Luckly they were low grade, so i only have to get a checkup for every five years.

Nope. Not sending my DNA/genetic material to someone that may sell or harvest the information
Same with heritage testing. I would if I can get one from my doctor protected by HIPAA.
